Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a centralized light supply apparatus, including: a controller, at least one light source pool, and a plurality of CPO switches. The controller is connected with the light source pool and the plurality of CPO switches through a two-way communication channel, and the light source pool is connected with the plurality of CPO switches through a photoelectric hybrid connector. The controller is configured to control the light source pool and the plurality of CPO switches. The light source pool is configured to output a light source to the plurality of CPO switches under control of the controller. The plurality of CPO switches are configured to modulate the received light source into an optical signal under control of the controller and output the optical signal. The light source pool may be cascaded and expanded through one controller. The problems that in the related art, an ELS panel pluggable light source occupies a front panel of a device and occupies a large space can be solved. Through the photoelectric hybrid connector, more light sources can be connected and occupy small space on the panel, and the space occupied by the panel is greatly reduced.

Abstract: A co-packaged assembly, comprising a substrate, a chip, and a plurality of CPOs. The chip is arranged in a central region on a first side of the substrate, and the CPOs are arranged in a peripheral region of the substrate; the orthographic projections of the CPOs on the substrate fully surround the orthographic projection of the chip on the substrate, and the orthographic projections of two adjacent CPOs on the substrate are spliced with each other. The co-packaged assembly can increase an optical fiber fan-out space and improve space use efficiency, and can avoid the problem of insertion loss caused by vertical coupling; meanwhile, efficient expansion of the area of the CPOs can further be achieved. The disclosure also provides a network device.
